 - "From the majestic peaks of the Lakeland hills to the sparkling waters of Morecambe Bay panoramic views greet the eye on every tee. On a clear day, you can see the Isle of Man on the sea’s horizon. But the weather can be capricious. Play two rounds on Furness and, with the vagaries of the prevailing west wind, by the end of the day, you may believe you have played two different courses
   Whether the hills are wearing a covering of white on a clear frosty day or the summer heat haze dazzles on the water, playing Furness always creates an unforgettable memory. On the westernmost of the Cumbrian peninsulas your Furness experience awaits"

 - "Visitors are welcome to Furness Golf club throughout the week and can look forward to a challenging round..." - & West Point House guests do get particularly well looked after! - the 17th & 19th... our two favourite holes!

 - after Storms Ciara & Dennis, we’re due a little Spring weather,   – a reminder of warm sunshine & relaxing evenings …

"On 12th February 2020 the second stretch on the England Coast Path becomes open in Cumbria and for the first time people have a legal right to circumnavigate the island, offering some stunning landscapes for walkers on the way. To the north, there are wonderful views of Black Combe and the Lake District Fells, to the west the Irish Sea and the massed ranks of wind turbines, to the south views across Morecambe Bay to Blackpool and to the east, Piel Channel and the adjoining Furness coastline. This 33km (21 miles) section will eventually connect to the rest of the England Coast Path"
